The Porsche 911->ke282 is in its sixth generation (991), but for most Porsche fans the real 911 is the 996 series - especially if you consider the body hasn't changed that much since then and that was the first 911 with a water-cooled engine.

With this in mind, German tuner OK-Chiptuning unveiled the Manta Porsche tuning kit. If you were wondering where the name comes from, the answer is rather strange: the kit was inspired by the cult classic model Opel Manta developed between 1970 and 1988.

The kit is based on a 996 Turbo model, which in standard form, delivers a total of 360 horsepower. However, for the Manta Porsche kit, the tuner managed to squeeze an amazing 650 horsepower and 553 pound-feet of torque from its six-cylinder engine.

In order to obtain this amazing increase, the tuner offers a K24-Turbolader, a GT2-RS air cooler, larger injection valves and a higher-flow fuel pump. There is also a Sachs-Performance-clutch and an exhaust system with continuous 70 mm (2.75 inches) tubes.

In order to handle this amazing power increase, the tuner is also offering a series of updates that help improve its driving dynamics. It started with a set of 19-inch Formula rims wrapped in high-performance tires sized 235/35R19 or 305/30R19. The price for the wheels is €800 ($1,037).

A new KW Coilover Suspension version 3 was also installed to help the 911 in the twist and a rear spoiler from TechArt adds some downforce at high speeds.

So far we have loved everything about this upgrade, but the tuner has added something that some people may love and others may hate: the foliation. The tuner opted for a three-color (pink, yellow and teal) foil developed in cooperation with Cam Shaft Premium Wrapping. The price for the foil is €2,600 ($3,400).
